LIFE SAVING.

Precautions At Lake whitney For
Skaters And others.
Said a well known and promin ent citizen
last night: "There is now of course no ap-
prehension of danger at Lake Whitney, but
at the same time I believe in beginning be-
fore it is too late. There are many young
people gathering at the lake every day. They
delight in taking spin over the ice on their
skates or taking whirl on their sleds. But
as means of making it more safe for the
skaters, and to guard against dangers which
are liable to happen at almost any time, it
might be suggested that number of ladders
be procured and be kept in complete readi-
ness for use at any time. They should be
light in weight. as their bearing is better and
they will slip along over the ice easier. They
can be used with telling effect in saving the
life of person who has fallen through the
ice."

The evening lecture closed the series up
on The Home" which have proved most in
teresting, attractive and elevating. 'sThe
Model Home" was the special subject of con-
sideration last evening, and it as treated in
manner which made it most fitting and i'm
press1Te close to the talks upon this subject of
universal interest. 'tFew appreciate" said
the speaker, ftthe importance of the trivial
actions, which, after all, make up the
bulk of ones life. To those who
call upon us we are most polite and kind.
On the surface we appear well. On the holi-
days when the family are gathered and mu-
tual gifts are exchanged we are moved to
spasmodic generosity and consideration to
others. Bnt temperature of 100 degrees
on isolated days only makes the succeeding

another for the family. Much depends on

rents have the power of setting
the standard of family treatment
One point is most essential, viz, united
head of the family. The husband and wife
must act in CO operation in the government
of the home. Any departure from this rule
will surely be followed by weakening in
the parental influence. No parent can es-
cape the conviction that the home is the
cradle where immortal souls are nurtured
for veal or woe. Say what you will, rel1g-

These trains coming loaded down with news
of divorce and murder with the Sabbath
dawn bring with them test of your Chris
tianity. How can an hour with the annals
of crime portrayed in the Sunday newspaper
do otherwise than dissipste all religious feel
ing and faint the mind. The model home
will be home of prayer, not melancholy or
doleful prayer. There is such thing as
making the few minutes of family worship
the brightest of the day.

A Young Girl's Terrible Crimes.
POISONED THE CATTLE, KILLED THE BABY, AND 81
THE HOUSE ON FIRE.


THE HOUSE ON FIRE.
A dispatch from Man1stee, Mich, october 16,
says: One day recently the house Of James Hen
derson was fired In several different places. The
fires were set at different hours, and each
was discovered soon after and eXtinguished.
They were at first thought to be accidental
blazes, but the action OF Miss Minnie Demore,
the adopted daughter OF the family, caused
suspicion to fall on her. Before the fires Mr..
Hendersons swine had all died from poison and
the COW followed the pOrkerS few days later;
then the infant child OF Mrs. Henderson died sud-
denly under singular circumstances. Minnie was
not suspected OF connection with these events
until after suspicion was aroused by her conduct
the time OF the fires. She Is eighteen years OF
age, has been in the family since She was three
years of age, and was regarded as, and
treated like, one OF the Henderson chill
dren. Last Tuesday 1t was determined to
arrest the girl, and the charge then made against
her was larceny. The arrest caused a con-
siderable sensation, but the real sensation
was not developed until Saturday, when
Miss DemOre confessed to series OF crimes.
She says she poisoned the COW because she did not
want to milk It, that she set the fires because she
had grudge against her foster parents, and that
she smOthered the baby because 1t cried. It IS
charged but to these charges the girl has not con-
fesSed that she tortured the infant and then
killed It; that she has made frequent attempts TO
remove the family. The prisoner Is fairly good
looking girl, and Is either insane f1endish She
regards her arrest coOlly, and admits her CUNT
with something like pride.

THE ROBBERY OF THE OFFICE OF THE TRRAsU
FAST ST IOIrTS

THE ROBBERY OF THE OFFICE OF THE TREASURER
OF EAST ST. LOUIS.
telegram from st. Louis, october 10, says:
The people Of st. Clair County, ILL.,, just across the
river, are considerably excited over the trial Of
Thos A. Canty, excity clerk Of East st. Louis and
his brother, D. Canty, on the charge OF being
accessory to the robbery OF the vault OF the city
treasurer in East st. Louis. The robbery occurred
several years ago, and so rotten was the admin
istration OF East st. Louis that the county OF St.
Clair employed st. Louis detectives in the case.
ChaS. Clark, alias Coleman, a professional bur-
glar, was first arrested and after proper manipu-
lat1On turned States evidence, and implicated
Lieut. Tom Duffy, OF the East st. Louis police, and
Tom Eagan, a Saloon-keeper. The two latter were
placed on trial. and the testimony produced by
the State showed that DUFFY, the guardian OF the
peoples interests, had imported Clark. alias Cole
bling the vault. He sent all the police the night
or the burglary away, and Coleman wrecked the
vault and secured 900 in city scrip and $40 600
in cash. This was divided after the robbery, Duffy
taking one-nalf, portion OF which, he said was
for another man.
Duffy and Eagan were sent to the penitentiary.
Recently they notified the sheriff or the county
that they intended TO make clean breast OF the
matter. They appeared before the grand jury
and Implicated L. A. Canty, city clerk, and his
brother, ID. CAVITY who Is another city officer. The
pair allege that II. A. Canty was the principal in
the affair, and put up the job. He knew how much
money was in the vault every night, aud notified
Duffy when TO plumber 1t. They also allege that
CAVITY received his share and assisted the burglar
Coleman To escape the st. Louis detectives.
